In 2012, the embassy moved to its current 4.5 hectare location, acquired for $247 million. The embassy is on Igor Sikorsky Street, close to Kiev’s western outskirts, and 15 minutes walk from Beresteiska station.[3] Previously known as Tankova Street, the street was renamed by the City Council after Ukrainian-born aircraft design engineer Igor Sikorsky due to request from the embassy.

Since 2004 the embassy has been picketed annually on April 8 by group "Institute Republic" of human rights activist Volodymyr Chemerys due to the refusal of the US government to pay compensation for the death of Ukrainian journalist Taras Protsyuk who perished in 2003 during the War in Iraq.
